Northbound Grain train with CSX 4576 and 3168 leading through Carleton MI. Came around 9:40 am

I'm doing a trip to New Buffalo MI within the next few weeks, how much action does CSX and the Amtrak Michigan Line (NS Locals) get? I know not all of the CSX trains on the GR Sub run that far south, but I'm just trying to get an idea of what I can expect. If someone could help me out that would be ...

WB CN Intermodal through Flint (CP Flint) with CN 2227 and 2713. Potentially X139? Think I saw Z149 go through Charlotte already.

CN Q122 through Kearsley with IC 6250 OLS leading at 7:09 AM

EB o499 with CN 5772 solo thru Griffith, IN at 12:50. This is a CWR train for work in Michigan.

A unit Potash train heading west at Vlasic Pickle at Imlay City 3 units up front crawling in run 8 coming out of the siding a ex CITX ES4400AC on rear also in run 8 crawling up the hill.

That would be B731. Always seems to have something cool in terms of power.
